3 mol
The net production of ATP molecules per glucose molecule in the muscles if glycogen is the source of the glucose is 3 mol.
- NADH is converted to NAD+ via the conversion of pyruvate to lactate, which is catalyzed by lactate dehydrogenase, in order to maintain the oxidation of glucose and the net yield of 2 ATP per mol of glucose oxidized (or 3 mol of ATP if the source is muscle glycogen).
- ATP stands for Adenosine triphosphate
The following reaction occurs in the muscles when glycogen is broken down:
(Glucose)n + Pi → Glucose-1-phosphate + (Glucose)n-1
How much ATP is produced when glucose is converted to glycogen?
- 2 ATP is produced when glucose is converted to glycogen
- For every glucose molecule to be converted into a molecule of glycogen, two ATP are needed.
How is ATP produced from glycogen?
- Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecules are needed for muscle contraction, and they are produced by the oxidation of glucose by the muscle cells during anaerobic and aerobic processes.
- Muscle glycogen particles are broken down during intense, intermittent exercise and throughout prolonged physical activity.
